I have an application (App1) where there is a simple page, whenever there is an incoming call the status bar shows on the top.
I want to make it shift the application down instead of showing it on the application top.
I created one app(App2) sometime back and in that the status bar pushes the view down but I am not able to understand why it does not happen for the new application(App1) I created. I am sure I did not write any code in the application(App2) to handle such scenarios or to listen such notifications. Both the apps are for ios7 and use XIBs. The App2 has a login page and then it shows Tab Bar, for both the pages the view is shifted down whenever there is a call in progress.
Any idea what is going wrong ?

We are working on an Ionic application where the app view shifts when a phone call is in progress, anyone got any ideas or could direct me on how to fix this ?
Please see screenshot phone call is in progress and the app's view changes
You can use UITabBar at the bottom, UITabBar doesn't move if call status bar toggled. Also, if your application will require a fullscreen, then app will not be affected of call status bar... ...but it will not show the status bar too) Im not sure if Ionic can provide this, but search for it)
Firstly, I must explain this, I know this green bar appears if your app has support for CallKit and user went to background state from app, And these all works perfectly from my VOIP app.
But I want to implement something like Whatsapp iOS App which user can go to back instant message screen from a voice call and even client is in the active state, a green bar appears.
I do not know how WhatsApp has implemented this feature. But I guess it can be custom view (green bar when the app is in an active state but not in call screen).
Do you guys have any idea how can I implement this feature? Or Do the CallKit has any methods or something else to force to show green bar if the call screen is not appearing but also app is not in background state??
Can't you just put your colored bar at the top? I am not sure if your app is using navigation controllers, but if not you should be able to align a UIView between superview.top and safearea.top, and set it's backgroundColor to anything you want.
I would like to implement a similar response system for push notifications throughout my app. When a remote notification appears and the application is in the active state I would like to place a button temporarily on the screen that performs the same action regardless of where it is in the app.
The only way I can think to do this is to create the same response to notification method in each of the app's many view controller.
Is there any way to do this in the app delegate, tab bar, or navigation bar so that the same response would apply to multiple views rather than placing the same function in each view controller separately?
Please advise and thanks
If I understood your question correctly: your problem is not related to notifications at all, but rather how to place a button on top of all views. A common way would be to add it as a subView to the window.
As a starting point: AwesomeMenu on GitHub
During an active VOIP call, my app is put into the background when an incoming cellular call is received and answered. If, while on the cellular call, I bring my app back to the foreground the app view appears but is unresponsive. The "Touch to return to call" banner appears at the top of the view in green but the app view appears as if there is a darker transparent window overlaid on top of it preventing the view from receiving input. If I put my app into the background, bring another app to the foreground and then bring my app back to the foreground everything works as expected so the problem seems to be specific to active cell calls and/or the green banner only? In Settings->Notifications->Phone I tried turning Notification Center OFF and Alert Style NONE in the hopes of removing the banner to see if the problem still exists but these settings do not effect that banner. In addtion to the App window appearing to have a transparent window overlaid on it, if I touch the window I'm able to drag the entire app window (or view) in all directions (up down side to side) and it has a bounce effect (like tableview vertical scroll) when I release it.
If I dont know the problem I cannot fix it (:
Thanks..
Are you sure there's no view being added on top your view which might be intercepting all your events? My second guess would've been that your app received a memory warning and unloaded a bunch of views. However, that's not very likely since you still see all the views.
I don't know what you really mean to "bring your app back to the foreground",but I can tell you for sure that you cannot call in the same thread the UI and the incoming call, so for situations like this when you want to render some view during a call you can try something like this:
public void InvokeGUIThread(Action action)
{
Dispatcher.Invoke(action);
}
For example if you want to set a text in a textblock do something like this:
InvokeGUIThread(() =>
{
textBlockSome.Text = e.Item.ToString();
});
I have an audio recording application. And when it is recording in the background, I see a red horizontal bar on the top with my project name on it. I want to get a handle on that bar so that I can display additional things there. How do I get a handle on it and what exactly is that bar called?
If your app is not running in the foreground you don't have access to the screen, so you can't get a handle to the status bar. And even if you could, you wouldn't be able to change it.
